Eco-biofabrication of silver nanoparticles from Azadirachta indica, Gymnema sylvestre, and Moringa oleifera for lung cancer treatment.

Introduction: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) derived from natural sources have garnered significant attention due to their unique properties and eco-friendly production methods. With lung cancer remaining a major global health issue, there is a continuous need for novel and effective therapeutic approaches beyond conventional treatments such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies.

Objective: This study aims to synthesize AgNPs using plant extracts from Gymnema sylvestre, Moringa oleifera, and Azadirachta indica and to evaluate their anticancer activity, particularly their effects on gene expression in A549 lung cancer cells.

Comparative evaluation of the effect of three different obturation techniques on push-out bond strength of AH Plus Bioceramic and EndoCeramic sealers: An study.

Context: Effect of three different obturation techniques on bond strength of bioceramic sealers.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effect of cold lateral compaction, thermafil, and thermoplasticized obturation techniques on the push-out bond strength of AH Plus Bioceramic and EndoCeramic sealers.

Settings And Design: The design of the study was an study.

Profiling of MicroRNAs for the Identification of Unique and Common MicroRNAs in Preeclamptic Patients of South India Using Next-Generation Sequencing.

Introduction: Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious pregnancy complication with an unclear cause. Recent studies suggest that microRNAs (miRNAs), particularly miR-1, may play a role in controlling the genes associated with this condition. This study aimed to compare the expression of miRNAs in the blood and placental tissues of women with PE to those with normal pregnancies.

Optimizing Desmostachya bipinnata-derived platinum nanoparticles for enhanced antibacterial and biofilm reduction.

This study presents the green synthesis and comprehensive characterization of platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) using Desmostachya bipinnata (Db) extract, incorporated into two innovative mouthwash formulations (MW1 and MW2). UV-Vis spectroscopy confirmed the successful synthesis of PtNPs, with distinct absorption peaks between 250 and 600 nm. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy identified hydroxyl and carbonyl functional groups, critical for the bioreduction and stabilization of PtNPs.

An assessment of the influence of dentinal pretreatment with chlorhexidine, nonthermal atmospheric plasma, chitosan, and proanthocyanidins on shear bond strength to composite.

Context: Dentin biomodification has been emphasized as a means of improving the bond between composite resin and tooth surface, consequently enhancing its longevity.

Aim: To evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS) of dentin after pretreatment with 2% chlorhexidine (CHX), 2% chitosan, nonthermal atmospheric plasma (NTAP), proanthocyanidins (5% pine bark ((PB) and 5% bromelain).

Settings And Design: The study was designed as an investigation.
